Random Product Review: GMMK2

Hey, it’s been awhile! And I’m back with the successor to the ever-popular GMMK keyboard, the GMMK2. Now I’m sure you might all be wondering, how well does it hold up to the original? The original had a good overall package, after all. With it’s low price point, mechanical-ness, colorful lights, and customizability, what wasContinue reading “Random Product Review: GMMK2”

Model Kits & Things: Aaru TKL Keyboard

My Aaru finally came! Egyptian-themed and rocking the hieroglyphics, I was super indecisive about what colors I should get cause I really liked a lot of them. Go figure though, I saved myself from making the decision by spending a bit more money to get the “wildcard” option, the gacha/random/don’t-take-your-pick option. So the thing aboutContinue reading “Model Kits & Things: Aaru TKL Keyboard”

Random Product Review: Azio FOQO Keyboard

Ah, the Azio Fokal… no, excuse me, the Azio FOQO Keyboard… Now, what a journey! Started on Indiegogo, I funded this keyboard back in May of 2020 during the wonderful epicenter of The Pandemic (yes, The One) and received my copy of the board in September of 2021 (like, just the other day). Now IContinue reading “Random Product Review: Azio FOQO Keyboard”

Random Product Review: Keychron Q1 Keyboard

The “Keychron Q1 QMK Custom Mechanical Keyboard” is a keyboard that is in direct competition with the “Glorious GMMK Pro” by Glorious PC Gaming Race. Both have a very similar 75% layout (though the GMMK Pro has an additional key, the rotary encoder), both are hot-swap, aluminum-bodied, are customizable through open-source firmware (keymapping), and haveContinue reading “Random Product Review: Keychron Q1 Keyboard”

Random Product Review: iQunix A80 Keyboard

The iQunix A80 Explorer. Ah, what an interesting looking keyboard. The color and look of it is mainly why I bought it (that and it was on sale. Still is, at the time of writing, though I don’t know if they’re ever NOT on sale…). I hadn’t heard of iQunix before I ran into thisContinue reading “Random Product Review: iQunix A80 Keyboard”

Model Kits & Things: Vulcan x Maja Mechanical Keyboard

Featured on KBDFans (a store dedicated to all things mechanical keyboard) is the Vulcan x Maja mechanical keyboard kit, an Alice-style ergonomic keyboard that may or may not be affordable for the public. But trust me when I say this is one of the cheaper options for an Alice-style board. Because my sister started havingContinue reading “Model Kits & Things: Vulcan x Maja Mechanical Keyboard”

Random Product Review: GMMK Pro Keyboard

The Glorious GMMK Pro is a 75% gasket-mounted keyboard that caters to people who want something nicer than market-ready keyboards but haven’t yet reached deep into their pockets for some nice custom mechs. Priced at under $200, it has a lot it puts on the table: aluminum casing, hot-swappable 5-pin PCB, a gasket-mounted design (theContinue reading “Random Product Review: GMMK Pro Keyboard”

Model Kits & Things: The PocketType

I recently purchased and made the “PocketType,” a tiny little keyboard by maartenwut and mechboards that you can fit in your pocket, hence the pocket name. This is a keyboard kit, which is something you have to make. It comes in black and white and is a through-hole (you see the components). Here’s a picContinue reading “Model Kits & Things: The PocketType”
